trespass alleged to have been committed by
the plaintiff upon the defendant at Winthrop,
on the 26 day of October, 1886, when the
plaintiff claims that while at work in the
family of the defendant, without any provo

Legislative Notes.

l. c. Libby writes the Journal as follows
"Seeing circumstances goiug in against ap-
preparations for stocking the State College
farm, wish you would give room to little
item giving my opinion, that it would be a
great mistake to Withhold this small sum
OF $4,000 asked in the interest of agriculture,
as 1t is my opinion that if granted, and well
invested in the several most prominent
breeds of cattle, sheep and horses, it woul
answer as a nucleus tor the finest herd OF
blooded stock in the country, these FLOODED
ANIMALS to be kept in our own State, and to
be disseminated among the farmers at about
cost prices. This would scatter biooded
stock ali over oar State, which should have
been done years ago, but those engaged IL
imported catt.e held them above the farmers
ideas. | think by adopting this plan the
State College management can make good
showing, and it would be of untold advantage
10 the cattle interests of the State at large.

Wednesday evening OF the past week
was as gay as any one night of the winter.
w. W. Eastmans dancing party, given
in honor of Miss Damon, of Boston, proved
the most brilliant affair of its kind that the
season has produced. The "MikadO" club
made merry at Malcolm'S the same evening,
the Apollo clubs masquerade was more
largely attended than any previous enter
tainmentment given by that popular organ
iZation this winter. the Canadian society
had most successful social at Curtiss hall,
and the Musicians Protective union and
their friends danced at the Harmonic.
Aside from these terpSichorean pleasures
several large parties entertained many good
people, so that Wednesday evening brought
social enjoyment to many hundreds OF Min
neapoliS people.
In fact. it seemed that all the gaiety OF
the week had been crowded into the one

Thursday was an elegant affair, and brought
together most of the Older. ond some OF the

The forty-second annual report of the

Over three hundred million dollars of in

This was the first company, and for
thirty-five years the only company, to omit
from its policies the clause making them
void in case of suicide. Very few com
panies do it now. Being convinced that
most suicides are the result of insanity, and
that many cases of accidental death and
murder cannot be distinguished from sui

And Mrs. NJ. wondered why her neighbors
did not call on her. In England, you know,
the gentry are the farmers, and he who owns
his own farm is "a landed proprietor and
is honored by the less fortunate "shop-
keepers in the towns and cities. The lady
thought the same custom prevailed here
Had the poor, ignorant woman, whose hus-
band owned ten acres adjoining the M. farm
stead, called on our English lady she would
have been received with kindly politeness,
and all her mistakes of grammar and pronun-
citation would have been ignored. Very prob
ably madame would not continue the ac-
quaintance, but she would not have looked
upon the visit as an intrusion. In time Mrs
NJ. came to a realization that England and
America are as widely separated in custom
as in miles, and while she never entirely got
over patronizing habit towards the shop
keepers wives, and infinitely preferred the
association of the families of barristers and
physicians, she wisely endeavored to become
one Of US, and earned the respect which true
womanhoOd always eXacts.
